The Green Bay Packers have obvious needs entering the 2026 offseason. On defense, the interior of the defensive line and cornerback are areas that demand upgrades, while depth on the offensive line and at running back are keys for the offense.

That’s what we tried to prioritize in our latest seven-round mock draft. Because we had a trade down scenario last week, this is more straightforward.

Round 2, Pick 52: Ahmad Moten Sr., DT, Miami

The Packers badly need more production on the interior of the defensive line. And in a weak class at the position, Moten may be an outlier. He has a 13.8% pass rush win rate and generated 41 pressures, the third-most amongst 320+-pound players in 2025, only behind Lee Hunter and Darrell Jackson Jr.

Round 3, Pick 84: Will Lee III, CB, Texas A&M

He might not be the Packers’ perfect pick because his top speed isn’t elite. But Lee is a long and physical corner with a strong change of direction and tenacity.

Round 4, Pick 120: Drew Shelton, T, Penn State

The Packers tried to go heavier over the past few years and it hasn’t worked. Shelton is lighter, but has great technique and moving ability. His lateral agility makes him a top pass protector, and the Packers would have time to develop him behind Jordan Morgan and Zach Tom.

Round 5, Pick 158: Devon Marshall, CB, North Carolina State

Good size and speed to follow big receivers down the field. Marshall may be overly aggressive to search the ball sometimes, but he has strong hands to create plays. 

Round 6, Pick 200: Kaelon Black, RB, Indiana

Black won a National Championship this past season at Indiana, and he has good vision and explosiveness. He wasn’t targeted much in college, despite some potential to improve in that area. As a solid pass protector, he is an ideal backup for Josh Jacobs to play situationally.

Round 7, Pick 236: Dallen Bentley, TE, Utah

Bentley had his struggles as a blocker, but he’s a solid receiver and can generate yards after contact.

Round 7, Pick 254: Luke Petitbon, C, Florida State

The Packers like to move tackles and guards around, but they are fine taking center-only prospects — Josh Myers is a recent example. Petitbon is one of the top pass-protectors of the class, and getting a developmental option at this stage of the draft is interesting.

Round 7, Pick 257: Treydan Stukes, CB, Arizona

The PFF simulator had Stukes this late, but his level of play will probably make him go earlier than that. Stukes is long and has an elite athletic profile, something Brian Gutekunst will love. Very fluid, can also defend the run.
